In many cases, commission is calculated as a percentage of the final sale price. For example, if the commission rate is 5% and an item sells for 1,000 CHF, the commission would be 50 CHF. The remaining amount is paid to the seller after fees are deducted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some categories may use a fixed commission amount instead of a percentage. This means the same fee applies regardless of the final selling price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Commission rates may vary depending on the category. High-value categories such as vehicles or real estate may have different structures compared to electronics or general goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you use premium features, featured listings, or a seller subscription plan, commission structures may differ or be reduced depending on your package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Commission is typically charged only after a successful transaction. If no sale occurs, no commission applies (unless separate listing or promotion fees were selected).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
